Iconic 70 mm Hasselblad color film negative positive from the Apollo 11 mission, 2.75 x 2.25, which pictures LMP Buzz Aldrin’s bootprint on the lunar surface, an EVA image taken as part of a test of the properties of the lunar regolith (the loose, superficial deposits covering the moon's solid rock surface). This early-generation, hand-numbered frame copied from the film that went to the moon was used in preparation of later-generation, machine-numbered film strips for photograph production, including the famed red-numbered versions. The left border is annotated, "AS11-40-5877," indicating that the photograph was from Mission 11, Magazine 40S. In fine condition.
The Apollo 11 mission crew carried four 70 mm cameras with them and captured a total of 1,407 images on nine magazines of film (550 in color and 857 in black and white). During their two-and-a-half hours of extravehicular activities, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin gathered samples of surface materials and extensively photographed the lunar surface.
